Fremont Veterinary Clinic

Every once in a while we like to highlight our sponsors on our website and this time I spoke with Preston Ross, the owner and hospital director for Fremont Veterinary Clinic who has been at this clinic since 1992. I asked him what motivated him to become a sponsor of a women's bicycling team and found out that it was not only his connection to Connie White, a member of Sorella Forte, but he has a personal tie to cycling as well. Shortly after being diagnosed with cancer in 2003, he did a Livestrong ride. At first, just completing short distances was an accomplishment, as he had signed up and completed the 10-mile option of the ride. He has since purchased a road bike and worked up to doing 50 and 60 mile rides and is interested in completing a century soon. His cycling has in turn piqued his son's interest in cycling as well. 
 
Fremont Veterinary Clinic is located at  5055 NE Fremont St. in Portland and has been in business for over 30 years. They practice extremely good medicine with very high standards. Visit their website (www.fremontvet.com) or Facebook page for more information or to find out about their variety of services, including dental, surgical, acupuncture, and preventative care for your pets.
 
Thank you Fremont Vet!

Racing...

Colleen cheers on her teammates

If we're not racing, we're cheering. Thanks for running up that hill a dozen times, Colleen! 

...and recreation

Fun on a group ride. See, we're not all about racing ;-) more photos.

The bicycle is just as good company as most husbands and, when it gets old and shabby, a woman can dispose of it and get a new one without shocking the entire community.
